November 2008 Ribbon Judging

We seem to have adjusted to our new home pretty good. We do need help setting up the judging area and getting tables for the raffle plants and food area. If we could have one or two strong people help with the tables, it would be appreciated.

The East Everglades Orchid Society thanks members that participated in our judging program. Our tables bring beauty, education, and enjoyment to everyone. This is an indispensable part of our organization and we encourage your support. We see many types of orchids, whether they are big, beautiful, showy hybrids, or small, rare, unusual species. At the end of the year we reward members with trophies for bringing in exceptional, well-grown orchids. We take pride in making your awards meaningful and important to you, so you return next year with more stunning orchids. Keep up the good work!  Have a safe and happy holiday and we’ll see you at the party!

Our hard-working judges evaluate every orchid brought to our tables. Not enough can be said about their commitment to bring quality and professionalism to our society. We have some of the most qualified judges in the country. Some are trained AOS judges. Thank you for your time and dedication towards our society.
